We're shipping rc8, actually. (But with the e1000e fix of course).
glyj: we're not tied to it for 2009 Spring - we changed kernel between 2008 and 2008 Spring, if you remember. We decided to go with 2.6.27 because it adds rather a lot of important hardware support, and 2.6.26 will be harder to support post-release.
